() Huma Abedin is finally getting what she wants.
The former wife of disgraced Congressman Anthony Weiner is set to marry an actual billionaire at the end of the month … and now runs the Democratic Party inside circle, sources say.
”She is marrying Alex (Soros), who now controls the Soros Foundation and is the biggest power in the Democratic Party,” a source told me. “Huma will be, by marriage, just as powerful, if not more than him, due to her contacts.”
As if to put the contacts on display, Abedin dined with former Senator and boss Hillary Clinton and George Clooney’s wife, Amal, at the Polo Bar in New York City last week.
”There were secret security and bodyguards everywhere,” my spy said. “They were just huddled together at a table talking.”
George Clooney wrote Biden op-ed before he dropped out of 2024 race
Amal Clooney is, of course, the wife of George Clooney, whom people in the Democratic Party mysteriously consider a heavyweight, despite normal Americans not wanting their votes dictated to by a multimillionaire Hollywood actor.
He also wrote the scathing takedown of Joe Biden in The New York Times last year (“I Love Joe Biden, But We Need A New Nominee”) that many point to as the final reckoning for President Biden’s reelection hopes.

Clooney was later blamed, as well as others in the Democratic Party, for Biden’s cover-up, as he admitted in the piece, he had seen Biden’s demise up close and had not acted sooner. But still, it is Abedin (soon to be Soros), Clinton and Clooney who are considered the female triumvirate of the Democratic Party.
”If these people are picking the new party head, we are in trouble,” said an insider.
Abedin is marrying the young Soros heir on June 14 in the Hamptons, and the Democratic royalty will all be there … I can only imagine what “plans” are afoot to revive the party.
